the entire thing is fake. My buddy did same thing in high school 'sports journalism'. We had a German foreign exchange student, my buddy decided to create an alter ego for him that was some badass MuyThai boxer. Backstory and everything. Had a whole feature article in the weekly paper. The entire thing was made up. He couldn't kick his way out of a paper bag. Did get him a whole lotta *** tho.
I know it's fake. Haha. That made me laugh even more bc the kid being interviewed was hilarious in character.

Being a crazy bicycle rider myself and having watched many races, it's amazing just how fast and how destructive those crashes happen and are. It's amazing that more people aren't seriously hurt in those crashes.
